Chicago Blackhawks vs Vancouver Canucks
Stadium: United Center (Chicago)
Chicago have looked awful at the start of the championship. The team is moving hard on the ice and losing to everyone in a row. Jeremy Colliton’s team will play their next game at home against Vancouver. Will the Blackhawks lose again? We’ll pick a few options to bet on at once.
Are Chicago never going to start winning?
Four straight losses to start the season is a terrible start. Montreal did the same thing, but the Canadiens made it to the Stanley Cup final last season. It’s hard to justify the Blackhawks’ failure. It was indeed a tough calendar for Chicago. Colorado, New Jersey, and back-to-back with Pittsburgh, all away, and a home game with the New York Islanders.
In a good way, we need to give Jeremy Colliton some more time. There is a chance that the team will pick up a form and start winning consistently. However, the competence of the head coach is increasingly hard to believe. With a roster like this, the young Kane and Taves, and a flock of young talent, this team should be in contention for the playoffs, especially in the weak West. And they have no right to get off to such a terrible start.
Vancouver are off to a terrible start to the season, too.
At least the Canucks don’t have that recent championship tradition and Kane and Taves in the lineup, so it’s much easier to justify a disappointing start to the season. In addition, Vancouver played all of their games away, 3 of them instead of 4, and they also picked up one win in the first game of the season against a very potent Philadelphia in a shootout. Vancouver seem to be headed in the right direction. The offensive line is flush with talented forwards, and now the Canucks have strengthened their defense. Let’s see what comes out of this interesting project.
Expert Betting Tips
Too bad about Patrick Kane, but the Blackhawks don’t seem to have any prospects. With a change of coach, the team might find them, but there seems to be no chance in the current format. Even though they leaked the last game 2-5 to Buffalo, Vancouver right now looks much more solid. It won’t be surprising if the Canucks take the win in Chicago.
We predict that Vancouver will have a chance to win a productive game.
